Now, decades had passed, and the new king had long passed away. After a military coup, the royal family was driven off the stage and lost their original respected status. Only the legend of this ‘Water Star’ was still shining.

Caroline didn’t expect that this legendary sapphire would reappear in front of her in such a way.

Once the news of the ‘Water Star’ was out, it would probably cause another turmoil. After all, Y Country was developing well now, and their citizens were still thinking about snatching the gem back.

Caroline even suspected that the client who gave her this mission might be from Y Country.

She opened the address bar and realized that the location of the gemstone was actually an underground auction. It was the same underground auction where

Caroline had exchanged the ring for money.

This made the mission even more difficult.

To be able to operate such an unruly gray place like the underground auction house for so many years and still have a certain reputation was a symbol of strength in itself. It proved that its security was world-class and difficult to break through.

Moreover, the location of the underground auction was never fixed. The invited guests would arrive at the designated location according to the agreement and then be blindfolded and transported to the same place.

Caroline had attended this underground auction twice before. Once was at sea, and the other time was in an underground palace. Therefore, those who wanted to make a move on the treasure had no way to check in advance or make a plan in advance. More importantly, the information only said that the gem would be sold in the underground auction, but it did not say which auction it would be sold at.

Therefore, if she wanted to take action, she must first wait for an opportunity. She had to wait for every auction that was held during this period and wait for the figure of the ‘Water Star’. Only then could she find out who had it.

To her, this was already a difficult task. The only way to enter the underground auction was to get an invitation. Obviously, she couldn’t get one now.

[If you really can’t get it, you don’t have to force yourself. I still have some small orders here. I can help you change it.] Will Sr. seemed to have sensed her troubles and gave her a considerate suggestion.

However, Caroline could tell that he was gloating between the lines. It seemed like Will Sr. had given her such a difficult task on purpose. He was probably angry that she had intruded into his private territory. Since he couldn’t beat her, he had to put her in her place.

But who was Caroline? She was someone who had barged into the enemy’s important military base many times and could come and go as she pleased. How could she be stumped by an underground auction? Hence, she replied, [Give me the deposit. I’ll accept this mission.]

When Will Sr. received the message, he was dumbfounded.

Just as Caroline had guessed, he didn’t think that a newly appointed bounty hunter like Caroline could solve such a troublesome mission. The reason he gave her the mission was just to make things difficult for her.

In the end, he didn’t expect Caroline to be so bold and confident. She actually agreed to it. Will Sr. made a round in the room before tactfully reminding her, [This is your first mission. You can try it first. You don’t have to force yourself.]

Once Caroline accepted the deposit, it would mean that she had truly accepted the mission. She would have to work hard to complete it. Otherwise, she would have to face a huge compensation and her reputation would be severely affected. It would be difficult for her to accept any more orders in the future.

Therefore, after most bounty hunters saw the mission list, even if they were tempted, they would only give it a try. After they succeeded, they would take the spoils of war to accept the mission list, then hand in the items and receive the bounty. If they failed, they would pretend that nothing had happened and go straight to the next mission.

The advantage of doing so was that the pressure on the bounty hunters would be reduced. Of course, there were disadvantages as well. For example, many bounty hunters might bump into each other. Everyone wanted this thing, so it was inevitable that it would cause a lot of disputes, and it was not rare to lose one’s life.

[Thank you for your reminder, Will Sr. But I’m definitely taking this order.] Caroline didn’t have so many twists and turns in her heart. She felt that she could do it, so she accepted the order and desperately tried to get the target item to get the reward..
